Clarence Thomas Questions Presidential Immunity Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas recently questioned Special Counsel's Attorney Michael Dreeben about the lack of prosecutions against previous presidents for activities such as coups and operations like Operation Mongoose, which involved the CIA carrying out terrorist attacks against Cuban civilians. During a hearing on Presidential immunity, Thomas raised the issue, sparking significant interest and debate on social media. The discussion aimed to address the complexities surrounding presidential immunity and the potential implications for past and future administrations. Operation Mongoose: The Cuban Project, also known as Operation Mongoose, was an extensive campaign of terrorist attacks...

Came across this website. It’s intriguing. Cant vouch for its credibility, but very interesting. “In late 2021, the internet was abuzz with the leaked audio of one amazing phone call. The caller was a man named Richie Albertini, who phoned Child Protective Services in California and told a riveting tale that began in his teenage years in 1980s Los Angeles and covered the decades that followed as he worked at some of Hollywood’s hottest clubs and became involved with the mob”.

Several Kennedy family members, including most of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s siblings, are joining President Joe Biden on the campaign trail on Thursday, April 18, to make the case for another four years under his leadership and start knocking on voters' doors. Though many Kennedys have previously praised Biden, their decision to formally endorse him as a unit deals a heavy blow to RFK Jr.'s independent presidential campaign, which has unnerved Democrats in a nail-biter of an election year.

Former President Trump's opposition to the extension of an unrevised Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) was labeled as "crazy and reckless" by former Attorney General Bill Barr. "FISA is an essential tool for our intelligence community to have access to the communications of our potential enemies so they can keep all of us safe." Trump pointed to "the abuse of FISA to spy on me and others who the deep state and the Biden Administration have designated as so-called 'enemies of democracy' needs to stop. Listen, labeling one's political opponents as enemies is the real threat to democracy. It's not...

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. issued a statement on the January 6 prosecutions Friday, saying that while violent rioters deserved to be punished, many prosecutions of non-violent protesters were excessive. Kennedy’s statement undercuts the Democratic Party’s effort to portray the 2024 election as a “defense of democracy” and a referendum on the so-called “insurrection,” which Democrats blame on former President Donald Trump. Kennedy’s statement reads as follows: January 6 is one of the most polarizing topics on the political landscape. I am listening to people of diverse viewpoints on it in order to make sense of the event...

Senate Democrats were left red-faced at a hearing on climate change as their 'expert witness' proved to be anything but when faced by veteran senator John Kennedy. Budget Chairman Sheldon Whitehouse invited Olympic skier Gus Schumacher to give his perspective as the committee considered the impact of climate change on the recreation industry. But it was all downhill for the 23-year-old as he struggled to answer basic questions and could not remember his tweets claiming the war on drugs was designed to jail black people, and calling for the police to be abolished. The excruciating exchange continued with Schumacher insisting...

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) gave us another amusing demonstration of his ability to humiliate Joe Biden’s unqualified judicial nominees during Wednesday's confirmation hearing. United States District Judge Nancy Maldonado of the Northern District of Illinois, who has been nominated by Joe Biden for a spot on the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, had previously signed a brief supporting a ban on "assault weapons" in Illinois state courts in the 2010s, yet, when he asked her to define "assault weapons,” she couldn’t. “You said, ‘assault weapons may be banned because they’re extraordinarily dangerous and are not appropriate...

My tweet to RFK, Jr.: https://twitter.com/allanfavish/status/1768990056117907773 "The Final Analysis" (https://tinyurl.com/3ujse3zb) claims that optical densitometry of x-ray films of JFK's head in Archives shows head shots from front (https://tinyurl.com/23zpdjtn), but Kennedy family deed of gift restricts access to films. Why not give access to resolve this?

The Democratic National Committee has filed a complaint against the pro-Robert Kennedy Jr. super PAC on Monday with the Federal Election Commission, accusing the super PAC of failing to properly disclose $10 million in loans. This is the latest action by Democrats fighting against the Independent presidential candidate's bid for the White House as some see Kennedy's campaign as a potential spoiler for President Joe Biden. The DNC alleges American Values 2024 (AV24) violated federal law by not properly disclosing $10 million in loans from billionaire donor Gavin de Becker, $9.65 million of which has since been repaid. It also...

The biggest individual contributions to Donald Trump's and Robert F. Kennedy Jr's 2024 presidential Super PACs in January both came from the same longtime Republican mega-donor, according to filings. Timothy Mellon, heir to the Mellon banking fortune, donated $5 million to the Trump-aligned MAGA Inc. fundraising attempts in January, as well $5 million to a Super PAC supporting the Democrat-turned-independent's presidential bid the same month, Federal Election Commission (FEC) listings reveal. Mellon, the grandson of former U.S. treasury secretary Andrew Mellon, is known to be a longtime donor to Republicans such as Trump. He gave $20 million to the Trump-aligned...

And brought Obama’s father to America. When LBJ signed the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act into law, JFK had been dead for two years, but it, more than the Cuban missile crisis or the race to the moon, was his real legacy which still impacts us today when there are no more Americans on the moon or nukes in Cuba. At the signing, LBJ paid tribute to “the vision of the late beloved President John Fitzgerald Kennedy”. Little did the 36th president know that the 44th president, born to a radical Kenyan student, was already growing up in this country...

Biden Celebrates Win, Sets Sight on 2024 Race President Joe Biden issued a statement on Saturday, celebrating his victory in the South Carolina primary. “In 2020, it was the voters of South Carolina who proved the pundits wrong, breathed new life into our campaign, and set us on the path to winning the Presidency,” the president said. “Now in 2024, the people of South Carolina have spoken again and I have no doubt that you have set us on the path to winning the Presidency again — and making Donald Trump a loser— again.” President Biden secured a decisive victory...

"The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants,” lead supporter Sen. Edward “Ted” Kennedy (D-Mass.) told the Senate during debate. “It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs.”

In head to head polling, Trump receives the support of 77% of GOP primary voters to Nikki Haley’s 20%.

ALM BEACH, Florida — Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that years ago when he was a U.S. senator that now-President Joe Biden was regarded by then-Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) and his colleagues as the “dumbest” person in the U.S. Senate. Trump was explaining how Biden is a “very vicious guy” surrounded by “vicious people,” but also noted that Biden is “not smart at all.” “I ran against him. I got far more votes than I did the first time. I feel I know him very well,” Trump told Breitbart News in an exclusive more-than-two-hour-long interview at Mar-a-Lago...

Michael Skakel — the Kennedy cousin who spent more than a decade in prison for the 1975 murder of his teenage Connecticut neighbor before he was sprung on procedural grounds — is suing the town of Greenwich and its lead police investigator over claims he was locked behind bars in a targeted attack. The lawsuit claims investigators pinned the slaying on Skakel for their own personal and financial gain. Skakel, a nephew of Robert F. Kennedy’s widow, Ethel Kennedy, was convicted of 15-year-old Martha Moxley’s murder in 2002 and sentenced to 20 years to life in prison, but was released...

Her private struggle with miscarriages and alcoholism became public after she was arrested for drunk driving in 1974. For decades Bennett wrestled with sobriety. She is currently in treatment under her children's care.

Robert Kennedy Jr. was on such good terms with Jeffrey Epstein that he had free use of the billionaire pedophile’s Manhattan office in 1993 — and partied with him ... Bobby never could keep dates or wives straight... They were irrelevant to him. ... Oxenberg’s account which may raise most questions over RFK’s attempt to minimize his Epstein connection — because it describes how Maxwell was part of Kennedy’s family circle long before his affair with Mary Richardson began. Oxenberg is a member of the deposed Serbian royal family — Britain’s Prince Andrew is a second cousin — while her...

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., said on "FOX & Friends" Thursday that President Biden and VP Harris are embracing the "loon wing" of the Democratic Party that supports open borders. Kennedy said Republicans are "as serious as a heart attack" about demanding border security measures to go along with funding for Ukraine. JOHN KENNEDY: President Biden is in political trouble. His poll numbers are practically on the ocean floor. 70% of the American people think his first car was a chariot. At times, his vice president talks like she's from outer space. Part of the reason is that the president and...
